Adamo / Percussions De Strasbourg - Voices - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

MINIMAL marks the Percussions de Strasbourg's first foray into the world of minimalist music. Faithful to their legendary history, yet open to other sonic horizons, the ensemble asserts a plural identity, nourished by a sensitive dialogue between heritage, aesthetic diversity, and creative freedom. This recording, centered on Steve Reich's famous Mallet Quartet, brings together works such as Avant, pendant, et pourtant by Camille Pepin, where formal rigor and emotion intertwine, and Sunday by Shelley Washington, imbued with a gentle melancholy. Nik Bartsch adds his rhythmic textures and Inchritual grooveInch. Conceived by Minh-Tâm Nguyen and shaped by the inspired ear of Vincent Peirani, MINIMAL reflects an openness to jazz, pop, and classical influences. It marks a turning point a record conceived before the stage, envisioned as a living manifesto of contemporary creation. Album Tracks 1. Mallet Quartet~I. Fast 2. Mallet Quartet~II. Slow 3.

Voies(x) de femme is an album grouping twenty-six pieces for soprano and piano, performed by the soprano Theodora Cottarel and the pianist and composer Tiziana de Carolis. It also includes a piece for choir and piano performed by the choir Florilegium vocis, conducted by Sabino Manzo, and accompanied by the pianist Maria Gabriella Bassi. The works which make up this album have one thing in common and that is they are all composed by women; past and present composers who have succeeded through sheer willpower in making their voices (voix) heard and in following their artistic paths (voies), despite prejudice and masculine predominancy in the musical world. The album Voies(x) de femmes desires to reveal to the general public pages of music of great quality, often unpublished, unknown or underestimated. Album Tracks 1. Dansons la Gigue 2.
